Jian Jing was just watching the excitement, but she didn't expect that the other party would use a big move as soon as they met.
"What do you mean I'm still alive?" She was surprised, "Should I be dead?"
Master Long seemed to come to his senses and said unnaturally: "I spoke too quickly, don't blame me, don't blame me." Then he continued to work as if he had said nothing.
Director Li was hesitant to speak, but Jiang Baiyan was very unhappy: "Teacher Jingjing, don't listen to his nonsense, you have seen more dead people than he has seen ghosts."
Jian Jing: "???"
What does it mean? Is he taking revenge on her for saying that he would lie?
A stingy guy.
After a series of complicated preparations, the exorcism ceremony officially began.
Master Long held the Dharma bell in his hand and shook it with one hand. The tinkling sound echoed in the dark old building, which was quite eerie.
He muttered something in his mouth. After a while, he picked up the bronze chime and struck it with a "clang".
The sound continued to echo, and the lingering sound lingered in the air.
The incense on the incense table suddenly went out.
The talisman paper on the table changed. The originally bright cinnabar quickly became dim, as if it was losing its effect. Beads of sweat appeared on Master Long's forehead.
His face was pale, and the speed of reciting the scriptures became faster and faster.
The talisman began to smoke.
The wisps of green smoke spread out, emitting a strong and strange fishy smell.
Master Long said, "Yin and Yang have different paths. The evil spirits retreat. I order you to retreat quickly - puff." Before he finished speaking, he vomited blood, staggered a few steps, and almost fell to the ground.
Director Li was shocked: "Master?"
"I'm fine." Master Long wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said bitterly, "I'm ashamed. I let the female ghost run away."
Director Li comforted: "You tried your best, but..." He hesitated, "Is the female ghost so powerful?"
"She died unjustly and is full of resentment. After a hundred years, she has long been a bully here and is extremely difficult to deal with." Master Long said hesitantly, "Besides, she seems to hate men very much. I just observed the yin energy here. There are more men than women, especially you."
He raised his chin and looked at Qu Nanpei with a strange expression: "The yin energy is so strong that I have rarely seen it in my life. I'm afraid there are more than just female ghosts."
Jian Jing asked curiously: "Are there other ghosts around him?"
"It's hard to say." Master Long said in a light tone, sighing, "I have average talent and haven't opened my third eye, so I can't see clearly."
"Then how do you know?"
"Unless one is gifted, the world cannot see foxes, demons, gods and ghosts at all." Master Long said, "I rely on the sense of qi, the perception of a cultivator, just like a chef with outstanding taste buds, who can distinguish smells that are ignored by ordinary people."
He pointed at the ugly-looking Qu male partner and talked freely: "For example, he has a mixed smell on his body, but with a strong sense of unwillingness and hatred. The strongest one seems to be neither a cage nor a dispersed, and it has nothing to do with him directly."
"What about him?" Jian Jing pointed at Jiang Baiyan casually.
Master Long hesitated and said, "It's hard to say. The negative energy is also shrouding him, lingering but not thick. I'm afraid he will be affected."
Sister Chen is superstitious and nodded in agreement, "That's right!"
"What about me?" Jian Jing continued to ask.
Master Long suddenly shut up.
She urged: "Why don't you say anything?"
"I don't want to cause trouble." Master Long said this and refused to pay attention to him anymore. Instead, he said to Qu, "If you don't make preparations early, I'm afraid your life will be in danger."
Qu didn't believe it at all, and sarcastically said: "How much money do you want to help me resolve it? One thousand? Ten thousand? Or one million?"
Master Long's face changed drastically, and he said coldly: "How ridiculous! Do you think I'm one of those swindlers?" He laughed in anger and said cruelly, "Okay, just because of what you said, even if you kneel down and beg me, I will never save you."
He walked away angrily and said directly to Director Li: "I won't take your money, so let it go this time."
Director Li was shocked and quickly said nice words to keep him.
After much persuasion, Master Long finally calmed down and said earnestly, "This is where the female ghost lives. You guys are here to film, so you should talk it out and live in peace."
Director Li asked how to do it.
Master Long's method was of course very simple. Burn more paper money and offer some tributes. The most important thing is not to anger the female ghost, otherwise it will definitely cause crazy revenge.
Director Li agreed to all of them and invited him to have a meal at the best local restaurant.
Master Long couldn't refuse the kindness and agreed.
As soon as the two left, Qu, the male supporting actor, "Pooh" twice and said to the agent, "It's not that easy to mess with me." He looked at the people on the scene and sneered, "Whoever makes it difficult for me, I will make it difficult for him."
The agent opened his mouth, as if he wanted to persuade him. But the male supporting role of Qu ignored him and turned away. He had no choice but to follow him quickly and whispered: "Be patient, there are so many people..." The person
behind him didn't hear clearly.
"I have something to do, so I'm leaving first." The female lead Bei said goodbye perfunctorily and left with a worried look on her face.
Jiang Baiyan scratched her face and asked Jian Jing: "Jingjing, what do you think?"
Jian Jing shook her head: "It's hard to say."
Master Long looked like a swindler, but she had walked the night road so many times that she couldn't help but be suspicious now, and she didn't dare to say that he was really incompetent - since there was a Qi Tian who could do it, couldn't others have real skills?
However, the system didn't prompt her throughout the whole process.
This is very cruel.
"Let's take a look. I have nothing to do anyway." People who have submitted their manuscripts have the right to be willful. Jian Jing decided to stay in Ning County for a few days, just as a trip.
She thought for a while: "You said, how about Devil's 4 looking back at the past of the devil and making an ancient version?"
Jiang Baiyan immediately asked: "Can you leave a role for me?" Jian Jing
said: "You should ask Director Huang."
"No need to ask, he will definitely be willing." Jiang Baiyan is very aware of his status. "If I don't mention it, he will definitely not take the initiative to find me. But I really want to act in your book."
He said miserably: "Is Devil's 4 going to end? The last time."
"Uh, how do you know I plan to end it?"
"It's a woman's nature to like new things and dislike old things..." Before she finished speaking, her cheek was kneaded again, "I was wrong."
Jian Jing withdrew her hand in dismay.
Cats are cute, but when they put their claws into the water cup and deliberately make trouble, they really deserve a beating.
In the next few hours, Jian Jing visited some ancient buildings in Ning County. The most valuable ones were all the wealthy families in the past.
The most famous among them was the Zhang family. They were the leaders of Ning County. The largest house occupied half of the street. The houses of other clansmen surrounded the ancestral hall in the middle. The entire northeast corner of the foundation was once the Zhang family.
At present, only three parts of the Zhang family's old house have been preserved. The first is the ancestral
hall. The ancients valued the clan. When encountering war, they would give priority to gathering the clan members in the ancestral hall. The rich families in the clan often donated money to repair it. From the Ming Dynasty to the end of the Republic of China, the details are vivid. The second is the home of the Zhang clan leader, which is also the rented filming site. The third is the Zhang Family Garden, which used to be the home of the landlord's ancestors. Compared with the clan leader's home and the ancestral hall, the style of this house is more Western, and many Western elements are introduced. According to the landlord, his ancestors went abroad to study, and after returning to China, they rebuilt the old house. It was the most fashionable family in the county at that time. Jian Jing saw the story of the dead rich daughter in a small corner of the garden. It is said that she was influenced by new ideas and opposed arranged marriages. She refused to marry the man found by her family, but instead secretly married a scholar. The scholar said he would marry her, but after his articles became famous, he abandoned the rich girl - no matter how rich the girl's family was, she was just a landlord, and later married the sister of a high-ranking official at the time. However, not long after he left, Zhang Qianjin became pregnant. At that time, the concept of county town was still very feudal. Unmarried pregnancy was still a shame in big cities, let alone small places? The Zhang family was a big family, and the patriarch held the power of life and death. Under the strong request of a group of elders, she had only two choices. Either commit suicide to preserve the reputation of the Zhang family, or be expelled from the family and never return home. Qianjin had a strong character and hanged herself at home. This case was recorded in the county annals. When the Zhang Family Garden was being restored, she was used as a typical example of resisting arranged marriage and criticizing feudal ethics, so that later generations could see this story. In the afternoon, the set started work as usual. This scene is very important, as it is related to the change in the male protagonist's mentality. It is also a rivalry between the male protagonist, the female protagonist and the male supporting role. The three will appear in the same camera for a PK. The process was not smooth. The female lead Bei is a well-known big flower. She is not on the same line as Zheng Keyan, but her status is similar. In recent years, there have been many announcements praising her acting skills. She doesn't want to be suppressed by Jiang Baiyan, who is ten years younger than her. She acted very hard. Jiang Baiyan had to take over. The two of them refused to give in to each other, which made it difficult for the male supporting role Qu. He couldn't keep up with the play throughout the whole process and was suppressed. Director Li's face turned green. He had to talk to them individually. The female lead Bei agreed to relax, and Jiang Baiyan agreed to respect his seniors. Only the male supporting role Qu didn't know what they talked about. Everyone heard him say something harsh: "You just don't want me to act. Do you think I don't know what happened before?" He slammed the door and walked out, saying to the people who were watching the excitement, "Don't think I'm easy to fool." The scene was silent. He walked away. Director Li came out angrily, his whole face flushed. Everyone was afraid that he would explode, and they avoided his eyes. Sure enough, after a while, he roared to the sky: "What are you looking at, work! Who do you think you are? If you don't shoot, are you waiting to starve?" The people who were accused of something else didn't dare to say a word back. The director was in a bad mood, and the pressure on the set naturally dropped again and again. The filming was not finished until after ten o'clock. Back in the room, Jiang Baiyan took a quick shower and then video chatted with Jian Jing. "I have a bad feeling. If this continues, this drama will fail." He was unhappy. "The script and the director are both good, but you have to work with him. If you know you don't want him to act, can't you be more self-aware and take the initiative to withdraw?" Jian Jing was curious: "What did he do that makes you so concerned?" "Something a bit excessive." Jiang Baiyan was vague and zoomed out. "Did you hear that there was a woman talking outside? He must have brought his girlfriend again." Jian Jing expressed deep sympathy, but was powerless. The two chatted about all sorts of things, and Jiang Baiyan fell asleep at around 12 o'clock. The video was not turned off. Through the camera of the mobile phone, she could see his sleeping face lying on the pillow, his hair disheveled, his breathing rising and falling, and his long eyelashes. The front camera looks so good, no wonder he can be a star. Jian Jing glanced at the screen twice and did not turn off the video. Maybe she could capture something. She opened "Mist" and opened a bag of shrimp noodles. Click, click, she was fascinated by it when a scream suddenly came from the video. She was so scared that her hands shook and all the shrimp noodles were scattered on the bed sheet. "Help!" Across the network, the voice from the other side was still clearly audible, "Ahhh!" Jiang Baiyan was frightened awake, wiped the corner of his mouth, and opened his eyes in confusion: "Who? Jingjing?" " Who is screaming?" Jian Jing had completely put aside the TV series and turned up the volume to the maximum, "Woman?" Jiang Baiyan's courage was hammered in Huanghun Town. He calmed down, held the phone and pushed open the door. The scream became clearer. "It came from Qu Jie." Jiang Baiyan whispered. Jian Jing: "Go and have a look." "Wait, I'll go find Director Li first." He turned a door, found Director Li's room, and knocked on the door, "Director, are you asleep? Wake up." Director Li opened the door angrily: "What are you doing? Who is screaming in the middle of the night?" Jiang Baiyan pointed at Qu Jie's room. Director Li held his forehead and was filled with anger: "What's wrong with him? Is he done yet? Does he think this is his home?" "Let's go and take a look." Jiang Baiyan suggested, "Don't make any trouble." Director Li nodded reluctantly, strode to the room opposite, and shouted loudly: "Xiao Qu, it's the middle of the night, be quiet." "Help..." There was a light on inside, and someone was crying for help. It was obviously a girl.
Director Li and Jiang Baiyan looked at each other, both felt something was wrong, and hurried to push the door.
The door was locked.
"Open the door." Jiang Baiyan hammered the door, "Open the door first."
Half a minute later, the door opened a crack, revealing a pale face. The girl held the door frame, her body kept sliding down, and she said tremblingly: "There is a ghost, help... There is a ghost!"
Jian Jing was already impatient and urged: "Turn your phone around, let me take a look."
Jiang Baiyan turned the camera around, not daring to go in, and stretched out his arm to take a picture inside.
"Is there a ghost?" He asked nervously.
There was a long silence on the other end of the video.
